A super traveler in a peaceful world

Yeah. Bai Yu nodded slightly, and explained, fearing that he would be misunderstood as having strange interests: I don't like swimming, so I never went to the school's swimming lessons, and I never used the school's swimsuit.

Is that so? Do you really want me to teach you? It should be quite troublesome to start from scratch, right?

don't want.

...How decisive? No, no, wait, what do you mean when you say time is urgent? Did your grandfather ask you to learn to swim in a short time?

no......

That is.....?

nothing dealing with you.

Not wanting to involve others in his misfortune, Bai Yu interrupted him directly, causing An Luo to shrug his shoulders and stop asking further questions.

............

On the way back, Bai Yu, who was always half a step behind An Luo, felt that he spoke a little too harshly. It was not until he was almost back at the door that he finally passed him quickly and whispered, I'm sorry... He hurriedly crossed the courtyard and returned to the room.

However, on the corridor, Kojiu, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by the footsteps of Bai Yu who was running away quickly. He opened the door and looked in the direction of the footsteps, but all he saw was Bai Yu, whose hair was all wet but the skirt was not wet and who was still dressed in black. , and...the shirtless An Luo from the other direction.

For a moment, the old man's expression became very subtle, and he thought a lot and even recalled his long-gone youth.

So he asked An Luo to come over, and then walked back to the room, but soon came back again and threw something to An Luo.

Is this...? An Luo subconsciously took the box. Before he could take a closer look, Xiaojiu said seriously: I bought this yesterday. I never knew how to give it to you... .Although I don’t intend to prohibit you from doing anything, but... you are still students, so it is necessary to exercise some restraint.

After finishing speaking, before An Luo could figure it out, Xiaojiu returned to the room muttering, I think the old man and his wife were on such a night..., but An Luo couldn't say what he was talking about specifically. listen clearly.

But when he took a closer look at the things in his hands, he unexpectedly discovered that... what Xiaojiu gave him turned out to be a box of condoms.

Received a box of condoms from a 77-year-old man? ? ..... An Luo was in a mess on the aisle for a moment, and at the same time he felt that this thing was a hot potato.

Although he subconsciously wanted to throw it away, he didn't know where to throw it away. If Bai Yu saw her throwing it in the trash can, he might be suspected of having some strange thoughts about her, and they were the kind that even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn't be able to wash away. After all, even if he said I got it from Kobato, so no one would believe it.

Helpless, he could only put it in his suitcase for the time being, preparing to throw it away when he had time, and then deal with some daily affairs in the meeting as usual.

As the night got darker, he left Naruse's house and made a phone call outside. When he was almost ready to go back, he found that Bai Yu hadn't fallen asleep for some reason, and was sitting on a stone chair in the courtyard with deep thoughts, looking at the sky. The crescent moon was in a daze.

This made him somewhat curious, so he walked over and sat directly opposite her: What's wrong?

......fine.

Let me guess? Are you...thinking about having to learn how to swim?

Huh? Lie...how did you know? Bai Yu was very surprised and covered his mouth with both hands, but An Luo did not answer, just nodded with satisfaction and continued: Since you care so much , then it must not be a small problem, how about you ask me? I am confident that I can train you to become a first-class swimmer?

don't want.

Why?

...Your actions must have some purpose. Bai Yu, who didn't know how to get along with others because he had been alone for a long time, said very straightforwardly: After all, you are a useless person. The guy who can’t afford to be early.”

As you said, if there is no benefit to getting up early, who would get up early? But we have only known each other for less than a week, and you actually know me so well. He nodded with a smile, but An Luo turned around Said: Although under normal circumstances, I do act for the benefit, but no matter who takes the action in the world, it is for the benefit, so they act. Of course, relatives may not be the same.

How is that possible? You are just making excuses for yourself.

Then let me explain to you. Many philanthropists do charity just for good reputation or peace of mind. Friends give to gain the friendship of friends. Lovers give to each other. Putting aside the beautification of feelings, it is just for the sake of not Losing or gaining this lover, good people helping strangers can also be interpreted as self-satisfaction, just like some people will be happy when they are thanked, then what these people want to gain is the recognition of others.

...I think even kindness with a purpose is still kind. And An Luo, are you too dark...

This is social experience, Bai Yu, you should remember it. An Luo looked at the night scene in the distance and sighed with emotion: Except for the rare few, there are not many unlucky ones in this world. Kindness without reason, so-called kindness is often rewarded. Sometimes without intention, it can be terrible. Free things are actually the most expensive, because behind almost all free behaviors, there are hidden costs or traps. That’s okay too.”

.....real?

Bai Yu didn't quite believe it, which made An Luo open his mouth to talk about how he deliberately left condoms in the hotel that were punctured after others gave them to him, in order to let others understand the price of free condoms.

But... Thinking about it carefully, he felt that he would definitely be lectured by Bai Yu. Being lectured by his sister at home was already a headache, so he thought about it and chose not to mention it, and instead said: Yes Now, let’s go back to the previous topic, shall we? I’ll teach you how to swim without asking for any compensation?”

Free? What's the trap...?

Thinking of what An Luo just said, there are hidden costs or traps behind all free behaviors, so Bai Yu suddenly became vigilant.

No, no, no, there is no price or trap, because teaching beautiful girls can be regarded as reward in itself. After all, beautiful things themselves have a high price. In fact, if a beautiful girl like you wants to find someone If you practice swimming, you can probably teach people to circle the island for several weeks, and it is not difficult to form an army.

...Lied to me again.

Bai Yu didn't believe An Luo's exaggerated words at all, but An Luo didn't think he was wrong. He shook his head funny and said: You have to have confidence in yourself, and don't overestimate such miserable creatures as men. ”

sad?

To put it simply, from the age of twelve, the vast majority of men have erotic fantasies about women. Especially in the three stages of junior high school, high school, and college, they all go crazy thinking about their girlfriends.

...This is the first time I've heard of it, really?

I am a male myself, why should I lie to you?

But everyone in my class is different from you... I always feel that they are fundamentally different... Bai Yu stared at An Luo suspiciously, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: What you just said... also included yourself?

It would be a lie to say no.

...Yes, that's it.

The too frank answer made Bai Yu feel shy.

However, I'm actually quite busy, and I'm not in puberty either. It's troublesome to have a girlfriend, so I don't plan to waste that time.

Then why do you want to teach me how to swim?

Hmm~ Why? An Luo thought for a moment and answered in a brisk tone: Well, there is actually plenty of time during the summer vacation now, and...aren't you very troubled? In the past few days It's me who delayed your practice, right? This is compensation. Of course, it's a bit too cheap and you just act like a good boy. I won't go into details. The most important thing now is...what do you think?

Me, me?...But, it can be, it can be...well, it can be...it can be...but...

Bai Yu, whose face was flushed, was confused about how to give the correct answer. An Luo stood up and walked over. When he was struggling, he patted her head: No but, it's so relaxed and happy. The decision has been made. Although it is summer vacation, don’t stay up late and go to bed early.”

After saying that, An Luo entered the room first, leaving Bai Yu alone staring at the door where he disappeared with an expression of reluctance, because she felt that she was treated like a child.

The next day, Bai Yu went out early in the morning again, deliberately avoiding breakfast time with him, but he didn't care and started his daily search, preparing to go to the ghost story conference in the afternoon to learn about the ghost story conference. It depends on the situation on the side to see if there can be a breakthrough.

But...at noon, he noticed Bai Yu being sneaky and lingering near the gate of a snack shop, not knowing what he was doing.

After some idle reasoning, he guessed what Bai Yu was doing, because...he had encountered a similar situation when he was a child.

To put it simply, I want to buy something from a store near my home, but I am worried that the shop owner who knows me well will tell my parents what I bought... Considering that there is only one dim sum shop on the island, this possibility is quite high. high.

Under such circumstances, in order to get rid of the boredom and depression of getting nothing, he went directly to the dim sum shop, intending to buy some food there and watch Bai Yu's entangled appearance while eating.

Bai Yu also quickly discovered An Luo's figure, but thought he didn't notice him and quickly hid.

When he walked into the store where he was visiting for the first time, the old lady fanning herself in the store chatted with him: Welcome. It's very hot today. Do you want some shaved ice?

Hmm~ Let's have one.

Which one do you want to eat: strawberry, honeydew melon, lemon, or blue Hawaii?

Of course the one with the longest name.

Okay, but...no matter which one they taste, they actually taste the same.

Huh? Then ask me what's the point of this?

The colors are different. Wait a moment. You can go to the back room first. There is an electric fan inside to keep you cool.

The old woman took out ice cubes from the freezer and put them into the shaved ice machine. An Luo looked at this small dessert house, looking around for a long time, and then pretended to casually glance at Bai Yu's direction in a playful manner. Bai Yu was shocked. After subconsciously squatting down quickly, I opened the sliding door and looked inside the house, and then...

A girl wearing only underwear and panties caught his eye, and the girl subconsciously raised her head and stared at him blankly.

...Oh? Have I suddenly had a change of fortune recently?

An Luo didn't have the panic of a normal teenager when he saw a girl's underwear. Instead, he looked up and down casually. He couldn't help but think about seeing Bai Yu swimming in underwear last night, and suspected that his unlucky self had finally turned a corner.

At this time, the old lady who had already made shaved ice came over and handed over the shaved ice and said: 1 million yen.

One million? Ah, I understand. Is Blue Hawaii a secret code? But in Tokyo, famous actresses are the only ones with such high names. Will anyone really buy it at your price? Is it trying to rip off new customers? Or... An Luo's eyes wandered back and forth between the girl and the old woman for a while, then locked on the girl who was stunned for a while, and asked: Are you a virgin?

Hey, yes...yes, I am...a virgin...

For virgins, the price can indeed go up, but in Japan, which has a custom industry and many desires (sensitivity) can be released at low prices, it is not easy to find targets. Of course, it is very suitable if the target is foreign tourists. It’s even possible to lift it up a little bit.”

While taking the shaved ice and tasting the taste of summer cold drinks, he thought for a while and said: By the way, how about we cooperate? Come to Tokyo to see me in a while, and I will find a way to find you a high-priced one, 1.2 million It belongs to you, and how about all the extra money belongs to me? Now we will suspend our business until we get to Tokyo...

——Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Before An Luo could finish talking about his deal, the strange girl in underwear finally came to her senses while he was talking about the deal. She covered her lower body with one hand and her upper body with the other, turned around and said Amazing scream.

...What's going on? An Luo put another mouthful of shaved ice into his mouth, turned around in confusion and looked to the side. The old lady who must be the madam asked: It's because it's the first time to do this, so I'm not familiar with the business. Is it related to?

Ha, ha... Not familiar with business? What do you mean??

The old woman, who had not recovered from the shock, looked confused and did not understand what he was talking about, but this confused An Luo: Don't you want to sell her for one million?

Selling Cang? No, no, what you are selling is this. The old woman shook her head in surprise and pointed at the shaved ice in An Luo's hand, which made An Luo couldn't help but be stunned: The one million is... Country joke?”

Yeah, one hundred dollars.

Then why is there a customary woman here who looks like a guest? An Luo stretched out his spoon and pointed at the girl who had her back to him and was still shouting You guys get out quickly! The old woman shook her head gently: No, Cang works part-time in this store, and now... she's probably changing clothes, right?

So that's it, is that so? This can explain it. After understanding all this but not quite sure why the old woman would let herself in when others were changing clothes...probably just not You know the people inside are changing clothes, right?

After understanding that everything was just his overthinking, An Luo pondered for a while and then asked: What, what does Bai Yu usually buy here?

Bai Yu? That kid usually buys watermelon sticks.

Oh... An Luo left the door naturally, walked to the freezer, picked up the only two watermelon-flavored popsicles, and then placed the five hundred yuan coin on the table: There’s no need to look for the extra ones, I have other things to do, so I’ll leave first.”

Walk slowly~

An Luo quickly left the snack house. The old woman waved goodbye with a smile. Only the girl in the room who was still wearing underwear was confused and didn't know what the situation was now.

.

.

When An Luo walked out of the shop, Bai Yu, who had just reached the door after hearing the previous scream and worried that something had happened, bumped into him and took away the watermelon sticks and shaved ice he had just opened. Knocked off.

Yes, I'm sorry... Bai Yu looked at the two things on the floor and apologized to him embarrassedly.

It's okay, it's not a big worry anyway, it's just...

only?

In this case, I have the last watermelon stick in my hand.

An Luo raised the watermelon stick in his hand, shook it a little, and quickly walked away without looking back, because... he wanted to avoid the girl in the snack shop changing her clothes and chasing her out.

Bai Yu, who was on the ground, looked at the shaved ice and watermelon sticks on the floor, and then looked at the direction where An Luo disappeared. After being in a daze for a while, he quickly thought of a question.

That's...the last one? - An Luo!? Wait!!

When he realized the seriousness of the matter and simply said that An Luo had the last popsicle in his hand, Bai Yu immediately chased in his direction.

But An Luo didn't stop until he was far away from the snack shop, then he stopped under the shade of a tree, turned around and looked at the girl following him with a smile.

Then, that...if it's possible... Bai Yu stared at the popsicle in An Luo's hand and said hesitantly: ...I can take the watermelon stick in your hand, Sell ​​it to me?

Of course not.

W-why? You also like watermelon sticks?

Who knows? I haven't eaten anything and I can't comment.

...Huh? Bai Yu, who was confused, turned his head in surprise, while An Luo slowly tore open the packaging of the popsicles and asked, Why do you think I bought two popsicles?

Why?

I originally planned to finish the shaved ice quickly, with one watermelon stick in each hand, and let you watch me finish the last two watermelon sticks by myself.

——Evil, devil! Are you a devil?!

Thank you for the compliment~

...Woo...

An Luo smiled and accepted this evaluation, and opened his mouth to bite it, but Bai Yu could only grit his teeth and stare at him with a gaze that almost wanted to kill him.

But before he could bite it, he stopped his movements, shook the popsicle and said, Don't look at me like that. I'll give you a chance, right?

Really? What?! Bai Yu changed his previous intention to kill and looked at him with bright eyes, as if he couldn't wait to grab the watermelon stick from his hand.

Open your mouth.

Open your mouth?

Open your mouth first.

oh oh......
